    This is (very) roughly in my neck of the woods but seems high on price. Pretty, though!

    agfrost, how are things. Long time no see. All has been well here. The Acurus you listed does look nice I must say. I saw that one as well and thought the same as far as price goes but all of the used vintage seems to have went up lately. I will find one sooner or later. Looking at the above three because they are American made and vintage. I have wanted to go all American made for a while. Thanks for the info. and I hope all is well there with you and the family. By the way, no matter what I do I have not been able to fix that 202 yet. No worry's though as I will one day. Gives me something to obsess about from time to time right ! Take care Brother.

    I personally think that would be a great deal. If I were there I would most certainly buy those. Too bad he will not ship.

    That would be great if the site admins agree. I don't know if there are any rules prohibiting that. If you check them out and can get a deal that would be great because I do not mind paying you to do so. I would really care less about the amplifier. But the preamp I want. We would need find out how much to ship it all because that may be a prohibiting factor. Just let me know. Thank you either way.

    here's an RL-11 with an A-150 for $500. Could sell off the amp or see if the seller will separate.
    I used to have an RL-11 for a long time. Wish I still did.

    My linked Acurus above has been lowered in price, I believe.
